If You Weary of Special Treatment for Abdomen, Back, Waist and So on, Here Are Some Fine New Stunts That Will Help You All Over. By JOE BEAN. S O far in my little specifications for building men, I have pre scribed exercises That would take care of and improve some particular part of the body, showing just how that exercise would do the work and explaining its benefits. And now there appears to be a growing demand among people who know me and are interested in my work for some general ex ercises that will be of universal benefit to the digestion, the mus cular system, and, in fact, to the entire anatomy. So I am going to give my readers a series of articles on general exercises. At that, it must be understood I that in taking abdominal exer cises, or waist exercises, or back j exercises, the part specifically! brought into play is by no means | the only part benefited. The arms and the legs, and frequent ly the neck, all profit by the strenuous work imposed on the waist or other sections. As regards typically general j exerciser, there are many games I that might come well under that | head. Home work—pottering about the garden, mowing the lawn. an4 all that sort of thing— also may be regarded as general exercises. A “Setting Up" Drill. Following 1b a list of excellent gen eral exercise*, of the “setting up” style so much favored In the army and navy as a means of keeping the men In fine trim from head to hoelt*. I don’t know any set of exercises th&t will prove of more benefit to the en tire body than those. No. 1. With the hands on the hip.* crouch on the left leg. bending the knees and then extending the right leg to fhe front, keeping the body rigidly erect and maintaining the balance by carefully applied muscu lar effort. At first you may have to hold on to something, but that should be abandoned as soon as possible. Always bond the knee* as far as pos sible before straightening out th«» right leg. nnd in rising bring that leg back to the bending position and then rise to the full height again. This should be repeated, extending the left leg an equal number of times, after which the exercises should be alter nated. It will be sure to result In soreness of the thighs and hips nt first, ns no man regularly applies any such exercise ns this except in this way. It’s a great tiling for bodily poise and balance. Take a “Full Squat." No. 2. Bend the knees as far as possible, to the “full squat” position, it Is called, and at the same time raise both arms high above, the head. Then rise to the first position, lowering the arms ns you straighten the legs. T111^ is fine for practically every set of muscles in the leg**, feet and ankles. Also, 1t expands* the chest, and the balancing necessary to accomplish the feat brings out much development of the muscles in the stomach, waist, back and shoulders. Even the neck comes in for its part, holding the head erect and not permitting it to bob forward, a* you will find it in clined to do. No. 3. The rome as No. 2, except that the arms are extended horizon tally ^ hlle the “squat’’ is being ac complished. It is peculiarly adapted to the development of the chest, arms and shoulders, also the back and neck muscles. That part of tHe drill may be taken standing up. but in conjunc tion with the “squat” it Is a far bet ter all-around exercise In all these exercises be sure to hold the body rigidly erect, and strive to acquire “form" and grace in the work. The head should not be ducked or bobbed forward, the shoulders should not be humped or drooped, and there should be a certain snap and style about the whole thing that is not only good to look at. but also aids greatlv in the development. And Some Jumping Here. No. 4. Start in the usual position, arms at sides heels together, toe* turned slightly outward. Jump the feet apart, about three feet, landing on the balls of the feet, and at the same time swine- the arms outward and upward. Then with another Jump bring the ft«*t together and swing the arms down to the sides, resuming the first position. Repeat about 30 times. It’s great for the legs, trunk and shoulders and makes the blood dance i/i the arteries in a very comforting manner. Also, it is fine for the breathing apparatus. DILLON TO BOX KLAUS IN TWELVE-ROUND BOUT INDIANA POL.IS, JN’D.. Aug. 9.— Jack Dillon yesterday accepted tern.' for a 12-round bout with Frank Klaus at Boston, August 26. These men have been recognized generally as the be*t of the middleweight* during the last year. Klaus defeated Di ion in San Francisco, the bout being a 20- round affair, and Dtllon squarely beat the Pittsburg champion hero in a !0-round bout last May. JOE BUSH FIELDS WELL. PHILADELPHIA. Aug 9—One thing Leslie Joe Bush, of the \th- letlcs, can do just a little better than anything else except pitch and sin.; is cover first on aw kward hits to M - In ire a. He fields his position as • E es any hurler In the American League. 1 - T. LOUIS, Aug. 9,—The ever present "baseball war”—manaser- player vs. umpire—may be blast ed should ex-Arbitrator Jack McNul- | ty win the $35,000 assault suit against Manager Jack O’Connor, of the St. LouU Federal club. Umpires all over the country have read news items of the 0‘Oonnor-McNuity run-in on June 28. Said officials also have learned of the heavy damage suit filed by Mc Nulty against the Federal League of I St. Louis, charging that the blows de livered by O’Connor have permanent ly retired him from the national pas- | time. The indicator handlers, according to a statement by Jack McNulty, fur ther averred by his attorney, George Burleigh, have offered McNulty finan cial assistance in fighting his cause for the small fortune to pay for the punches whipped over by the Fed eral manager The major league ar bitrators, backed by umpires In the minor and semi-pro associations, combined in subscribing a large sum I to benefit the cause of McNulty. The men behind the plate, in dire sympathy with the former field judge, have written McNulty many letters, requesting him to accept financial aid But McNulty or Burleigh will not deny or affirm the query that they have granted the request. Verdict Will Be Important. McNulty, as far as publicity is con cerned, is as much in the dark as a cave without n light. Jack refuses to b* interviewed. His spirits seem crushed, while the old happy-go-lucky greeting formerly delivered by Mac has passed to anywhere but McNulty. When asked regarding the aid of fered by his associates in the profes sion, McNulty replied: “You’ve got the dope. Why should 1 say any thing?” That w as all. McNulty pos itively refuses to announce the names of his non-invited rescuers, but from a little slip it is learned that such prominent judgment passers as “Hank” O’Day, "Silk” O’Louglin, Klein. Rigler and other big arena ca- voriers are in direct sympathy with McNulty’s pursuit for Justice. Should McNulty be returned the victor in the $35,000 damage? suit, it is generally supposed that mana gers. whether owning teams in a third league or in the big stadium, will act a bit more carefully before attempt ing to dow n the reign of the field of- I flcials. Baseball mlxups between managers, players and umpires date back to Noah’s Ark The most recent bit of thrills to greet St. Louis fans was the Stovall-Ferguson affair. George was barred from the field for a lengthy pe riod ami fined $100. In 1912 Klem and Roger Bresnah&n had a fistic en counter. Magee in Mixup. Again, in 1911, Sherwood Magee and Finneran exchanged wallops. Mr. Umpire received a few' knocks which deprived him of several teeth, while the triumphant boxer paid for his ac tions by the usual publicity, suspen sion and diminishing of the bank roll. It is not always the team managers who go after an umpire s scalp and life. Wrathed players seldom fail to take their inning with the arbitrator 'h *uld the official seemingly rob the athl te of a point. The fact that the m pi res have come to the assistance t McNulty proves that the fraternity i is a most outreach- Iminary tactics favor guy, there's a good war on umpires to believes that he's a me forever. Suf- headaches and in- i. Mac declares he same jolly fellow’ SUPER3AS KEEP STORK BUSY. BROOKLYN, lug 9 Za< i Wheat, Carlisle Smith and H> rb Moran, of Brooklyn, have all become proud fathers since the season opened. Tak ing it all around, the ball players Laic kept Dr. Stork busy this year. Walter’s Contract Expires in Oc tober—Little Trouble Expected in Signing Twirler for 1914. W ASHINGTON, Aus. 9—Th« task of signing Sir Walter Johnson, the famed flinger of the local American League team, will be up to Manager Griffith after October, 1913. But the Job will not be a big one, in the opinion of those who know Griffith and Johnson. Right now Johnson is serving tb# last stanza of his three-year contract with the Senators. He signed the document at the beginning of the 1911 season, after a misunderstanding with j James R. McAleer, then manager of the Capital crew. • • • JOHNSON Is drawing $21,000 for J three years’ work. He signed that contract after he had reported to the training camp, returned to his Cof- feyville, Kans., home and then re joined the team in the East after the seajion had opened. Johnson’* value to the Washington club Is generally rated more than Ty Cobb’s usefulness to the Detroit team. But Johnson will hardly draw down $12,500, the salary Tyrus is alleged to be receiving from the Tigers this sea son. • * • JT wouldn’t be surprising if Johnson 1 is slipped a contract calling for $10,000 salary for 1914, or one for $30,000 for service during the next three years. Sir Walter is worth al most any price he asks. It is Johnson’s disposition, as well as his wonderful speed and curves, that makes him a valuable member of the Washington team. The local players have it sized up pretty well, too As one member of the party said: • * * “AS lon F a * Johnson is a member of the team there isn’t another player on it who is going to get swell- headed. He’s the big noise and is modest about It. For that reason no other fellow on our club, no matter how good he is. or what he does, will have a chance to crow.” POISONING FROM FOOD Bob Fitzsimmons Was a Close Second, in the Opinion of Dean of Experts. By W. Wj Naughton. S AN FRANCISCO, Aug. 9.—Now it is a “fight fan’’ living in Wind sor, Ont., who wishes to draw me out on certain points. In a letter dated July 15, he says: “Seeing in last Sunday’s paper that you answered a question put by some fight fan as to who, in your opinion, was the most perfect Australian box er, I wish to ask who you consider was the greatest lighter of all time. If you do not care to answer that, would you please state who you con sider the greatest negro fighter of all time?” I’ll do the best I can, and to show you 1 am not inclined to shirk the is sue I will answer both your questions. It so happens that in replying to the question 1 reply to both, for the greatest fighter who ever lived, ac cording to my idea, was a negro. Ami ills name was George Dixon. It will be us well for you to remem ber. Mr. Fight Fan, that this is mere ly an expression of individual opin ion. There are no standards by which these questions can be worked out and settled with mathematical exactness. Nor is there anything on (he face of the earth on which both laymen and experts disagree more than the question of merit in pugil ists. This because fighting appeals to the emotions. It arouses enthusiasm and creates heroes and Ideals. 1 have no doubt there is still in existence a smattering of very old- timers who \n ill snort at the Idea of Tom Sayers and Ned O'Baldwin and Donnelly and Cooper being passed over in a discussion of this kind for a slim-limbed yellow skin like little Dixon. But he is my choice. And I feel that Bob Fitzsimmons runs him a close second. • • • 1 NAME George Dixon because I be- 1 lleve he triumphed over a greater number of formidable opponents than any other man I ever heard of. Some fighters had their run for the championship goal when the men they had to cope with were on the down ward grade. This was notably the case with Jim Jeffries. He defeated Bob Fitzsimmons, Jim Corbett and Peter Jackson when each of these was well past his prime in a fighting sense. Whether or not he could have beaten them hr&d he met them at their best l do not know. I do know, however, that the world was raked and scraped for opponents f<>r little Chocolate Dixon. He met the best men of the various fight- fostering countries when they held the championships of their various sec tions. and when it was made as clear is possible that there was nothing lef. in their own countries that could com pare with them. And he went through them all like sunlight through a chink in a barn. The same arguments apply largely in the case of Fitzsimmons. Taking his opponents man by man he can not show so big an army of worthy con quests 'as Dixon, probably, but old Bob overcame more handicaps than unv other tighter I have knowledge of. l'o/ this reason I consider he falls N O. 3. Hands at sides, heels together, toes out. Come to “full squat,’’ raising arms rigidly to a hor izontal p o s i- tion. Rise to first posi t i o n, lowering arms smartly. KELLY AND SHEEHAN SIGN FOR TEN-ROUND FIGHT CHICAGO. Auk 9.—"Spike” Kelly and Tommy Sheehan, Chicago welter weights, yesterday were matched to fight ten rounds in Superior, Wis., on I^abor Day night. They agreed to weigh 145 at 6 o'clock. Fred Gilmore signed the papers for Kelly, who has been idle since he beat Billy Walters at Kenosha. CUBS BUY NEW OUTFIELDER. CHICAGO Aug. 9.—Outfielder Charlie Stewart was purchased by the Cubs yesterday. He comes from the Indianapolis American Associa tion club, and is considered a prom ising youngster. He will report next week. very' little short of George Dixon in point of distinction as the world’s greatest fighter. • • • LJERE is one fired at me from a *■ * point nearer home: "How does Willie Ritchie compare with the lightweight champions who preceded him?” Up to date he does not begin to compare in the slightest. Ritchie is still young and lacking in experience, however, and may loom up as more of a world-figure In pugilism when he has pitted himself against men like Tommy Murphy', Freddy Welsh ami Leach Cross. Wolgast, who preceded, as a champion was a wonderful fight er bfore appendicitis marked him for its own. His handling of Battling Nelson on Richmond Field was some thing to live in memory even if little Ad had never accomplished anything else. Battling Nelson in his prime was an interesting performer. And it was his negative qualities that made him worth while. There never was a man within twenty pounds of his weight who could stand such rough usage and keep pressing steadily forward. He wasn’t the most galnly lighter of his class by long odds, but his powers of assimiliation covered a multitude of defects. • • • J OE GANS w as a thorough workman. ami a isght of him in action was as great a treat as a student of box ing could desire. He stepped around in a soft-footed way and was never out of position. His manner of end ing it all with a downward clip of the ri&ht. delivered without drawing back the elbow, was well worth the price of admission. jifi iMmmwvww™• • i. KNOCKOUT OF LORE WAS ONE OF RING’S QUEEREST NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 9.—Not a few strange knockouts have been recorded since boxing was first inaugurated, but that one at New Orleans recently when Frankie Russell was given a K. O. vic tory over Johnny Lore, of New York, was as queer as any. Perhaps it was the first time in ring history that a man was counted out while outside the ring. Lore was dropped twice by Russell and the mext time was pushed through the ropes. His feet caught on the lower rope as he w’ent through, and that much of him remained in the ring, out his body was in the laps of ringside spectators. Referee Burke started counting the minute Lore’s body shot through the ropes. At the count of five Lore was on his feet and at tne seven count he had partly clambered In the ring again. He got to his feet and Inside the ring just in time to hear the cry of "10 and out" given by the referee. REDS AFTER HAGEMAN. DENVER, Aug. 9.—The Cincinnati Reds are after Pitcher Casey Hage- man and Second Baseman Hank Butcher, of the local club. Neither Magnate Jimmy McGill nor Manager Jack Hendricks are in any’ haste to name a price upon these performers. MAURICE M'LOUGHLlN TOOK UP TENNIS AT AGE OF 13 NEW YORK, Aug. 9.—Maurice E. McLoughlin, who has made complete the supremacy of the Californians on the lawm tennis courts and rounding out his career by returning the Dwight F. Davis international challenge cv#p to this country, is a thoroughly' represent ative American player. He is but 23 years of age and he fulfilled his bril liant promise by winning the All-Comerr national championship at Newport last August. McLoughlin was born at Carson City Nev., January 7, 18i»0. It was w'hen 12 years of age that he took up the game in which he has won the highest Ameri can honors by' taking both the national single.*/ and doubles in the same year This has not happened since 1‘ 05, when Beals C. Wright scored on both titles, in the doubles, having Holcombe Ward as his partner. McLoughlin early' in hit career began to win championships, be ginning with the Junior titles in San Francisco. In 1905 he entered the Cali fornia State championship, but did not win an important title until 1907, when he took the San Francisco city cham pionship, and from that time on his rise has been rapid. Cal Delaney Breaks With Jimmy Dunn Fighter and Manager Have Hot Ar gument and Decide to Break Company. CLEVELAND, Aug. 9.—Cal Delaney, Cleveland’s best featherweight outside • J championship company, and Jimmy Dunn are* no longer boxer and manager. They have severed business and social relations for all time. Henceforth it’s one road for one and a different high way for the other. The climax to the partnership w*as the leading feature of the Put-in-Bay’s gay and sumptuous celebration. That’s when the split occurred and where Dunn and Delaney had a feverish argu ment that lasted several minutes and the result was that Jim refused to have anything more to do w’lth the West Side blonde boy. He claimed that De laney was becoming more and more un manageable. Cal debated that he was not a boy any longer and refused to be bossed. Every Bite May Poison—All Could Be Methuselahs If We Did Not Shorten Life by Self- Poisoning. All food eaten leaves in the stomach some waste, unused particles. This waste ferments and generates uric acid, and when uric acid gets in the blood it poisons the system. This is termed Autotoxemia, or Self-Poisoning. Con stipation, indigestion, biliousness, dys pepsia. icR Lei ache, languidness and a w’eake .od ^ steal condition result. Eliminate Autotoxemia, and we could live to be hundreds of years old. JACOBS’ LIVER SALT flushes stom ach and bowels, dissolves the uric acid which has accumulated and expels it with the fermenting waste. Take JACOBS’ LIVER SALT in the morning before breakfast. You will do a better day’s work, and with the con sciousness that your health is safe guarded against any indiscretion in eat ing. JACOBS’ LIVER SALT is better than calomel for constipation and bilious ness.
